Pakistan on Nepal’s Blockade
Nepali Prime Minister K P Sharma Oli’s six-day visit to India took place at a time when bilateral ties between the two countries had reached a low point on account of the Madhesis’ agitation against the newly promulgated Constitution. The agitation has taken the lives of over 50 eople, leading the Madhesis to block all the crucial entry points on borders with India. This in turn resulted in a shortage of essential commodities in Nepal. Unfortunately, the Nepali government felt that it was at the behest of the Indian government that the entry points were blocked, causing serious strain in the bilateral ties. It was in this context that the visit of Oli assumed significance in dispelling the misunderstanding between India and Nepal. -
